Blueberry Cheddar Dog Biscuits



Out of all of the super foods, blueberries are one of the tastiest! These yummy berries offer a myriad of healthy perks not limited to just us humans!  Dogs prosper from the antioxidants, fiber, and phytochemicals blueberries are full of. This scrumptious recipe is guaranteed to be a hit. Delicious berries paired with tangy cheddar cheese offer a perfect match in these crunchy biscuits!

Ingredients
1½ cups all-purpose flour
1 cup bread flour
½ cup blueberries
1 cup cheddar cheese, shredded
1 egg
2 tbsp oil
½ cup water

Directions
1. Preheat oven to 350ºF
2. Combine flour, blueberries and cheddar cheese in a large bowl and mix well.
3. Add the egg and oil to flour mixture and mix until the egg is completely incorporated.
4. Add water to the dough and mix until dough starts to come together (if you find the dough is too dry, add another couple tablespoons of water at a time until dough forms - you don’t want the dough to be too sticky).
5. Once the dough is formed, place on a well floured surface and form into a ball.
6. Roll out dough to a ¼-inch thickness.
7. Using a dog-bone cookie cutter, cut out biscuits and place onto a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
8. Re-roll scraps of dough to cut out more biscuits, you’ll yield about a dozen if you’re using a larger cookie cutter.
9. Bake biscuits 25-30 minute until nicely browned.
10. Remove from oven and allow to cool, store in an airtight container for up to 2 weeks.
